Just a reminder for residency applicants: ERAS tokens are now available for IMGs, and all residency candidates can start registering and submitting supporting documents on the myERAS website. Even if you aren’t ready to start working on your application, I’d recommend registering and taking a look at what will be required of you.
Additionally, I suggest you begin researching programs now, if you haven’t already. Residency Explorer allows you to compare your candidacy to those of applicants who have successfully matched to specific residency training programs in the past. You can also search the American Medical Association’s FREIDA database.
Getting started early will help you develop confidence and a strong plan of attack for the upcoming application season.
